[http://www.peatsridgefestival.com.au/default.html Peats Ridge Festival Cancelled] [http://www.peatsridgefestival.com.au/home.asp Peats Ridge Festival] Glenworth Valley 2007, Sustainable Arts & Music Festival, 29th Dec to 1st Jan, half way between Sydney and Newcastle. World Naked Bike Ride planned to hold promotional naked bike rides (with emphasis on the upcoming [[Sydney]] and Newcastle rides to be held on Sat 8 and Sun 9 Mar 2008) in conjunction with other bike activist groups followed by skinny dipping in the river.

===Planning Dinner===
[[Image:WNBR_Planning_Dinner.JPG|left|thumb|none|400px|Poster]]
 
*Date: Thursday, 15 November 2007
*Time: 7:00pm - 10:00pm
*Location: Premier Hotel
*Street: 1 Brunker Road (the Nine Ways) Broadmeadow

The proposal is to discuss WNBR Nudecastle 2008 over dinner. [http://www.hotelpremier.com.au/menu.php.htm Menu]

Everyone is welcome! Please bring your ideas and enthusiasm.

Any topics that are relevant are open for discussion.

As you probably know, the next World Naked Bike Ride is on Saturday the 8th of March 2008. Marte is organising both the Sydney and Newcastle rides this year and getting some valuable help. It is a big task and if there are any people who can help it would really be appreciated.

The number of people who have come along to Critical Mass rides in Newcastle over the recent months has been pretty low. After each of the CM rides is an opportunity to get a bite to eat together and discuss bike things including the planning of WNBR.

Because of time contraints that will be put on Marte to attend and organise both Sydney and Newcastle on the same day, we are considering holding the Newcastle ride on Sunday the 9th of March. Having the rides on different days will make it more manageable.

Does anyone have any suggestions or comments about this proposal?

Please come along.

====Newcastle Community Bike Library at This Is Not Art and Working Bee!====

2. NBEC to bring a supply of bikes which are easily fixable, our bring your own. 
3. NBEC to set up stall with bike info, CM, WNBR, NBEC, and NCM info as well. 

Times: 11am – 5pm on Friday, Saturday & Sunday, at Civic Park
(and to 7pm on Sunday for late returns).
